Story:Gitaroo Man is a rhythm video game featuring visual production by Mitsuru Nakamura and an original soundtrack by Japanese band COIL.
The game was later ported to the PSP under a new title: Gitaroo Man Lives!
This is an incredible game that marries classic rhythm game concepts with an infectious and engaging soundtrack. Once you learn its ins and outs its a 1 hour game, but it's also a 1 hour concert you put on as you guide your hero and his dog towards cosmic victory. So charming, so joyous, so much shredding. And it's stuck on PS2.
This game is perfection. The rhythm action GOAT. Everything is top tier: the dynamic song difficulty, the fun story, the great soundtrack. Defeating the Sanbone Trio on Master mode is still my greatest gaming achievement to this day.
You would have to pry my PS2 copy of this game out of my cold dead hands. My favorite music game of all time, I played it obsessively as a kid, and again when the PSP version came out. Love it to this day.
We gotta get this game back. When people meme about shorter games that look worse this is what they both mean and will never bring up. If you grew up on a steady diet of playstation demo discs then you know what i'm talking about.
